I moved this weekend about 16 miles away. Thank god, but I had just made it to the new house and unleaded the truck bed and closed the tailgate. An hour later the wife and I came out to the garage for a beer, so I was going to open the tailgate of the truck when I noticed the tailgate handle practically came half-way out and the tailgate would not open.
I grabbed my mag lite and started looking and noticed that 1 of the cables in the tailgate that attaches to the handle was missing. Very very strange.
I called the dealership and I am awaiting a call back.
